You remember when you still got Teen Vogue and Seventeen and the deaded prom issue would arrive in your mailbox and the only thing the magazine was good for was flipping through the pages and trying to find the ugliest dress in the whole thing? It was so bad it was good, car crash style.

It seems that times have changed. After checking the site on a whim, I found that Teen Vogue has done a prom editorial so fucking cool that it’s not even a prom editorial anymore. It’s all just evil teacups, bouffants, and ‘I wear a veil with indifference.’ According to the feature description, it twas inspired by Twilight; I’ve never read it and I don’t really have any desire to, but seriously, thank fuck for Twilight because it brought us this.

ugh, this makes me wish i could go to prom again. my dress was nice for then (sue wong, hand beading) but retrospectively i’m like ‘what the fuck was i thinking?!’ obviously, i wasn’t. these are great, though. doesn’t even scream “PROM!” now that we’re in a recession, does that mean they’re taking hybrids instead of hummer stretch limos?
